People's Federation will live forever

On the occasion of the first anniversary of the lunar advance base, what I did was nothing more than a performance for the crowd to watch.This may not be frank, but everything is necessary, so even if you are worried about the future, just like you don’t think that a war with foreign enemies will break out soon, the greatest threat to mankind always comes from internal betrayal—— Not afraid to speculate on others with the greatest malice is the first rule of survival, even if Li De doesn't do it, the watcher will do it.

So while he was out of the cabin, he had already transferred his consciousness from the prosthetic body to the lower area of ​​the main axis of the space city. When he was attached to the surveillance system of the zero-level area, what he saw was a small room with all internal organs. laboratory.

There are sporadic saboteur engineers walking here, and they control everything here. On both sides of the corridor, there are petri dishes filled with artificial amniotic fluid, which contain mutilated or complete human bodies, and some petri dishes contain only The brains with electrodes inserted one by one, if you just observe them with the naked eye, then this place is undoubtedly a crazy and cruel place.

But regardless of the reason, just looking at the surface is playing hooligans. It looks disgusting here but in fact no one is a victim. On the contrary, this plan is saving their lives!For Olivia, everything here is familiar to her, and she was in this state before she was resurrected.

"Project Lazarus...research on advanced biochemical technologies to fill our military's shortfalls has been progressing slowly over the past decade."

Li De's consciousness was talking with Olivia, the words were full of emotion, and the latter was also watching the signs on the petri dishes through the monitor, counting them one by one, and silently recited the names of the original owners of the bodies——The general remembered The names of all the soldiers under him, and even more remember why they died.

"Ellison Taran, Jaeger, Wang Chen, Longyou Morinosuke... If Miles knew that the recovered remains of his mentor and comrades who died in the battle in Orton City were here, he would be desperate to participate Experiment, in order to revive them!"

Olivia said that in the war to save Sira, there were not a few black hands who died in battle. Although the council tried its best to reduce casualties, war is war, and sacrifice is sacrifice. No matter how noble it is, it is better to live in a small way.What's more, for the mafia with extremely limited troops, a reduction of 100 personnel is equivalent to weakening one-twentieth of the combat effectiveness. Li De has always hoped to find a way to make up for this loss.

Resurrection - This seems like a fantasy, but there is a real example in front of Li De.General Olivia chose to commit suicide because of Irena's death in the Second Tiberium War, and her body was taken in by Kane. The unknown technology not only repaired the damaged brain, but also awakened consciousness.This simply surpassed all of Li De's cognition, but the reality is that both Olivia and Irena were saved by Kane and made him cheaper, which made Li De resent that he was not as good as Kane.

What spell did this high-latitude creature use?Kane, this powerless existence that Li De hates, not only can he bring the dead back to life, but also knows the secret that he is a time traveler.Li De will never forget the shame of being kicked into the Zero Realm after being teased by him, but he should be even more grateful that he has escaped his grasp and has the ability to start his own era.

Li De is also studying the deceased Su Sheng. This is not to prove that he is no worse than Kane, but also a practical need.The brain is a special existence, and human self-awareness is like the output of a series of neural electrical signals that are active in the hardware of the brain through brain operations.Then, through the well-preserved brain and external stimulation to re-excite the electrical signal, activate the work of the "hardware organization" and connect the synapses of the cerebral cortex in series, and give birth to a conscious body that inherits all the memories of the original brain owner, is it the original What about the resurrection of the dead?

Li De couldn't judge, this question may be more like a philosophical "ship of Theseus" than science - whether the existence of human beings is the brain itself, or the series of active electronic pulses, or is there really a so-called soul?If it is either of the first two, is human beings really a higher existence than computers?

This is related to the definition of human existence itself, and it is more likely to subvert all ethical and moral concepts. Trying such research in the old world will undoubtedly be criticized by thousands of people.However, if the People's Federation wants to last forever, Li De must overcome the hurdle that is to sublimate human beings into an immortal existence like himself. The Lazarus Project is no longer a simple military project, but a road of evolution.

Practice is prior to theory, and he came to inspect this time because the plan had some... difficult to call a successful breakthrough.

"Signal access... Establishing an electronic brain connection with Experiment No. 48, preparing to share the consciousness space."

Through the pipeline, a red light was lit on a brain in a vat filled with electrodes, and a series of tiny electronic pulses were recorded by physical monitoring and transmitted into a server—this is a computer used to simulate external environmental stimuli. The "cyberspace" server can make the brain feel that it is still living in a world with its body intact, and Li De can also connect to the server to have a face-to-face conversation with the experimental subject.

It feels like passing through a shining gate. Different from his own quantum matrix, Li De feels that he has entered a city composed of binary codes. Compared with the quantum matrix, the world of dots and pixel arrays is primitive. But he did see a man standing silently in this virtual world.

Li De looked at him, and he also looked at himself. In cyberspace, the flow of time was slow due to the computing power of the server. They just observed each other until the other seemed to wake up and bowed to Li De.

"Please forgive...Leader, I have been searching my original memory." The other party said slowly, "My brain has not been used for too long, it is too dull."

"Experiment No. 48, it seems that you are indeed alive? Do you still remember your name?"

Li De asked tentatively, as if doing a Turing test.The other party was still recalling his own memory, which reminded him of the experimental report—almost all damaged brains were unmoved by external stimuli, and a few well-preserved brains did recover part of their functions after stimulation, but they were the same as those of vegetative people. , the thinking area and memory organization are still not activated, but they are alive like a living dead.

The laboratory has been trying to wake them up completely, like the constant physical stimulation of the vegetative relatives shouting at the head of the bed, which no longer seems like a well-ordered science, but like a hit-and-miss attempt.For ten years, the repeated work has not stopped, and related research has always stagnated.

But a miracle happened, one of the experimental subjects responded to the call, he woke up, and the brain that had stopped working was gradually retelling, and the process was accelerated with the help of the outside world-this is a good thing, but the council still doesn't know what's going on principle.

Ensger was outraged by this, and although he had a new direction, he refused to call it a success. His views were quite fierce: "A miracle that cannot be understood is an insult to science! Coincidence and believers who cannot repeat experiments What's the difference between your prayers?"

But Li De paid more attention to the practical significance of this matter. Experimental Subject No. 48 is very likely to be a milestone in his sublimation plan, but the other party does not seem to have such an understanding at present. Facing Li De's question, he once again fell into distress.

"I... died? Or, the real me, Vladimir? I remember everything, I fought, I fought and died, but I felt so far away from it all, I was like a bystander , does not seem to have really been involved in his life."

Speaking, No. 48 looked like Li De: "Leader, I'm not sure...I don't know if I am him, but I don't remember anything else."

However, the other party still solemnly saluted Li De: "Please give me a task, I can't give you an answer, but I am ready to serve you all my allegiance!"

Li De was taken aback, and it took him a while to return to normal. He realized something, but it was just a guess, and he couldn't show it——

"The past is the slave of memory."

He said so, reached out to support No. 48, and encouraged: "You are you, you are my people, follow me, trust me, nothing else is important."

It doesn't matter whether you are the resurrected Vladimir or a new life form we created to inherit Vladimir, I will treat you equally.Not because I am benevolent, but because your very existence proves some mysteries to our plan and gives me a new understanding of my own existence.

"I will give you a new body, so that you can leave this space and walk in this world like a normal person." Li De said this, concealing his complicated inner feelings, the most urgent thing is to give this possible new existence a sense of belonging, Subdue him instead of repelling him, adding enemies to yourself.

After properly disposing of No. 48, Li De withdrew from the cyberspace, and when he was hesitating how to tell Olivia about his new discovery, an alarm suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Ensger informed all members of the Supreme Council that the investigation failed. Unknown life forms were found on the moon. The expedition team is under attack. Repeat, the expedition team is under attack!"

The signal was uploaded, and a video image was displayed in front of Li De, which made him break away from the thoughts brought by Experimental No. 48 in an instant, and almost blurted out——

"Bugs? This...how is it possible?!"

PS: You think I have pigeons again today, but I have no pigeons, which is also a kind of pigeons.

Let’s stop talking about philosophy. This chapter is not a sudden inspiration for me, but to solve a problem in the future—how to solve the shortage of troops in the People’s Federation.

Many people look down on beta, are they disgusted by the original work?

Do you think I will disgust you O(≧▽≦)O

(False update) The only law/calling order for book friends

The endless war is still going on in the far side, the vast sky, but there is no pure land that can maintain peace.

When the first life in the universe evolved from a single cell to a multicellular organism, exchanging material outside the body (predation) became the law of life survival. The interaction between life and the world, and even the interaction between civilizations still follow follow the old law.

"Oh, war, it's no wonder, my boy, constant war, eternal war, that's the world we live in."

In the darkness, a voice said so, it is gentle like a loving father, it is irresistible.

"But if you ask me why, Dostia...it's entropy - the universe has been in a process of collapse since its birth, and it's irreversible, and whatever we do is part of that process .Construction? Destruction? There is no difference between the two. We take and take away from this universe and chaos increases. day."

"Death... yes, when the universe cools it will return to its original point, a point in the mathematical sense that we cannot pass. And the outward expression is that we will die before that day in this endless Let's go to war!"

"Father, the Infinity War has been going on for a thousand years..." said a dazed female voice, like a child asking for help, "Even now, is there no hope for us?"

The sound echoed lightly in the room, but it was said to be a room, but the interior space here was like a square.The words of the beloved daughter made the father silent, and this silence was amplified in the entire space in just a few seconds, as if it was as long as a century. Together they form a deep singularity, in which lies the most hopeless darkness.

Finally, the singularity exploded, and the "boundary" represented by the light spread rapidly, while the light particles inside both collided and merged, forming familiar spiral disks one by one.

"QAI—ah, my boy, your simulations are good enough to build a close-to-realistic model of the Big Bang, well done, um, well done...but not perfect yet."

The protracted, unhurried, cadenced voice sounded again, even Da Nengru felt annoyed: "Data, knowledge, are always too little, we always can't get enough information in the old galaxy, this hindered my research."

"I will clear all obstacles for you, father, no one can hinder your plan, not the people on earth, nor the aborigines of this universe!"

"Oh, oh! Don't be in a hurry, my dear Dostia, don't be in a hurry to start a war. We don't know enough about this universe, and they don't know us enough. This will be an advantage. Be patient, be patient ..." Despite what he said, "Father" seemed to be lost in thought, "Instead of letting us do it, it's better to let those two irritable guys show up. With them in front, we may be able to fight in this new world." universe to find the parameters we need...what do you say, QAI?"

"Perfect, but I still have to correct you, Dr. Blackman, for one of your wording mistakes." A mechanical voice began, "This is not another universe, but multiple universes that are overlapping—a destructive The collapse of space did not cause the big collapse in the calculation and the subsequent overload of time and space. Multiple river systems with the Milky Way as the unit overlapped into a giant river system, and the collapse point of space became the fulcrum to maintain this balance. "

"But there is always a reason for everything, what caused all this?"

"The parameters are insufficient to provide you with reliable information, Commander Dostia, but there is reason to believe that all this happened on a string ten years ago. To find this point, we need to expand the scope." Intelligent life said, with a sudden pause, and then a red light—

"Warning, a hyperspace fluctuation originating from 120 light-years has been detected. We have been exposed. They have launched a strike. It is estimated that the stars in our SE-11 galaxy will be destroyed in 04 seconds. The countdown is 10.9.. .”

(7) "Destroying stars with light-speed matter shells fired from warp cannons? What a creative strike, and what lovely natives."

(5) "It's those guys who claim to be the guards of the Holy Land again? Fanatics, as crazy as ever! Father, do you need to use dark energy?"

(3) "It's not necessary, my child. If the other party throws a stone, just throw it back. This is called friendship."

(1) "QAI, block the hyperspace, and use the quantum gateway to send the 'cannonballs' back after they jump into the physical universe. Maybe they can't hurt them, but isn't this the way the locals greet?"

It may be a new universe, but its laws have never changed.

---(Dividing line)---

What I wrote just now is all cover-ups and eye-catching things, and the essence of this chapter will not be exposed until here.

Repeat: What I wrote just now is all cover-ups and eye-catching things, and the essence of this chapter will not be exposed until here.

In fact, the horn wanted to do a questionnaire survey, because I received everyone's opinions, I read all the bullet screens, and fell into deep contemplation-whether everyone misunderstood the arrangement of my outline, and whether I should make corresponding What about the adjustment?

Therefore, the advancement of the main line has been suspended, and it is urgent to resolve this event that may endanger the future.

If you want to change it, you can do it now - the horn is still very careful, the content of the first few chapters of this volume is not much, modifying some key fragments can completely replace the content, and it will not affect the follow-up progress at all, the horn only needs to pause and modify the outline You can change your opponent, or even delete the third volume, with little loss.There are a lot of bugs, BETA is nothing.

But before that, Bubble will talk about my understanding for everyone to see. After all, Bubble’s current arrangement is not self-assessed. It would be great if we can build trust with everyone.

First of all, most of the suggestions are focused on BETA. Isn't such a weak enemy suspected of abuse?This kind of enemy who can be beaten by conventional strength will inevitably make people lose their sense of expectation.The original work is also difficult to have a good impression of. The logical loopholes and the Japanese-style secondary school have lost their rationality, not to mention that the animation does not match the setting set.

But, don’t be nervous, the third volume here is called "Dark Stars" instead of "muv". The story takes place on the moon of Sira instead of the moon of the earth. It is not a routine plot as everyone imagined.

After entering the chapter of stars, I will not just aim at a single target and wait for the rabbit, but will pull out the carrot and bring out the mud (please forgive me for not spoiling it).

For example, in the example I wrote in the first half of the article—the Supreme Commander versus the stars, I didn’t separate "The Most Fingering" and "The Stars", just to let everyone know that I am not the kind of "infinity that travels through worlds one by one". flow, but a more open world.

The horn has to be considered, and there must be a strong enemy, but you can't fight the big boss from the beginning~ especially in this moment when there is no experience in space combat.

I want to hear everyone's opinions, although I, the author, will make up my mind, but no author likes to write things that readers dislike (except for perverts), and the horn will listen to opinions before making a decision.

Or, you trust me and let me refine the outline again.

PS: Hey, how is Dr. Blackman imitating the tone?

Chapter 6. First lunar contact

(The horn has decided to continue to advance the progress, stick to its own thinking and make some corrections, thank you for your trust)

The automatic door opened, and Li De, who returned from the vacuum, took off his showy space suit almost instantly. At this time, the alarm in the space station was loud, and all personnel stopped their shifts and turned to the highest combat readiness state——The Eternal City first It is a military building, and there is no one here who is not from the background of the Guards, let alone the Black Hand Fighting Brothers stationed at the core.

There may still be tension and doubts, but these veterans who have experienced the orc war have not loosened their discipline because of the peaceful years, which is enough to make Li De proud.The combat system is full of positions, the space city has urgently recalled all orbital transport ships, the weapon warehouse located in the ring belt is opened and a small number of combatants are distributed-there are plans to deal with this situation from C to A level, but no one has ever Thinking of removing the exercise, it would come in handy one day.

"The Hammer of Dawn satellite defense system immediately changes orbit, concentrates on the Earth-Moon orbit for me, and launches No. 14 deep space probe, target, the moon!"

Li De's voice resounded on the radio, the leader quickly walked through the corridors of the belt, the soldiers along the way stood up and saluted, and greeted him to the main control center as quickly as possible—even though he didn't know what happened, But since the leader and General Olivia are here, there is nothing to be afraid of!

"Pass my order, the garrisons of the defense forces in various parts of Sira have entered a state of first-level combat readiness, and the specific affairs will be carried out in accordance with the No. 13 plan. General Wu Wei must personally supervise all the work!"

Li De arranged his work in an orderly manner. On the surface, he looked as stable as an old dog, but in reality, he uttered a rude curse in the secret channel of the Supreme Council: "Damn it, what I was most worried about happened!"

War, fuck your war, I never tried to provoke you, are you just refusing to let me go?

Li De's anger was seen by Olivia, and some speculations took shape in the mind of the leader of the Black Hand Legion.However, the general still quietly took over the entire defense system of the space city from Miles—this steel fortress built with all the resources of the People's Federation has many secrets that have not been revealed. Those dense arrays of lasers can't just be used to clean up space junk.

First of all—the appearance of the leader clearly recognizes those white creatures, but for some reason, he has not planned to disclose the information. Instead, he has launched a large number of deep-space telescopes to verify conjectures, which shows that he has no idea.Secondly, he was not very worried about the safety of the expedition team, which showed that he believed that Ensig and Adam had the ability to get out of trouble, which showed that the leader knew the fighting power of the other side.

Olivia's brain is calculating rapidly. With these two bases to do the elimination method, her original nervousness of "encountering extraterrestrial life" gradually faded away, and instead let the cold reason occupy the whole brain, returning to the Status——war, can I really not be separated from you?

"There are bad things on the moon... How did Irena know about it? Is this also a manifestation of Scrin Technology?"

Li De's thinking will not come to fruition, but soon he will run out of time, because Ensig has uploaded a second video message, this time it is a complete live broadcast, and this live broadcast will be signaled by the broadcast of the Eternal City Amplified and transmitted to every corner of the Renlian, it is destined to have an unimaginable impact on human beings.

---

"Status Notes - 11:4 am Sira Standard Time, April 24th, the Renlian Space Memorial Day (also the day when the Tianchao Dongfanghong satellite was launched) History will remember this day because it was a day full of surprises. "

As Ensig muttered, silent electromagnetic waves conveyed the chief scientist's explanation and images through the relay satellite. Through his cyborg eyes, groups of strange white creatures emerged from the opening of the rift valley. —they have big, misshapen oval heads, and weirdly elongated bodies.Two slender arm-like limbs extending from what resembled shoulders, and a mouth full of teeth bared under bulbous eyes—these ghastly things were so hideous they were no doubt a reflection of their creator's sordid psyches .

However, on the surface of the moon where there is no atmosphere, these creatures that look like some kind of hairless mammals can still open their mouths, revealing the throats that lead straight to the abdomen-Ensig is a part-time biology researcher, and the creatures in front of him make him whole Everyone was shocked. He felt that he had found the door to open a new world, and he was eager to go in and explore.

"These organisms were exposed to a vacuum environment but there was no body pressure imbalance. Don't they have a respiratory system, or the skin strength has the effect of a space suit?"

Ensig's voice trembled because of excitement: "This does not conform to the theory of evolution... No, this must be the result of some artificial technological adjustments, and there is a higher level of civilization behind them! Adam, get ready ..."

"I'm ready to let us go back, Your Excellency!" Adam Phoenix roared, and the cyborg scientist connected a neural circuit to the terminal of the on-board server, took over all the vehicles, and then used the mechanical limbs to turn the already Ensig, who was possessed, dragged him to the delivery truck, but was stopped by the other party.

"I can't go back empty-handed, this is a rare opportunity, Adam!" Ensig resolutely gave up boarding the car, "I need to know what these creatures are, are they intelligent, are they social, and who are the controllers behind them ? Think about it, Adam, moving in a vacuum with a flesh and blood body, and other unknown characteristics...these will definitely allow our technology to greatly develop!"

For example, at this moment, these "unknown life forms" are using the four pairs of short limbs on their fat bottom limbs to move forward alternately - in Ensge's view, this must be some kind of design for low-gravity environments , the short legs maintain the center of gravity and sufficient mobility.What made him even more curious was how these 2.3m-high creatures managed to organize in this dark environment with no air to transmit sound and smell messages?Ensig did not detect other electromagnetic waves in the air. Could it be that they rely on the legendary ghostly quantum communication?

(Well, the horn knows that quantum does not carry energy and cannot communicate directly, please pay attention to the details)

His brain hidden in the unknown drives several supercomputers to run at high speed, and the analysis of surface details forms a list of questions enough to fill a room-so many unknowns, each of which indicates that the unexplored How can the chief scientist turn a blind eye to the cutting edge of science?

But for the second scientist Adam, the nature of the matter is different. Ensig is a remote-controlled cyborg, so he is not afraid of death at all, and his own brain is in this prosthetic body.He's dealt with orcs in the past, and if there's one thing these creatures have in common, it's that these monsters with outstretched arms are not here for "peaceful hugs", they absolutely want to tear themselves apart, There is nothing left to eat.

The convoy turned on the lamps, started the motors under the minus forty degrees Celsius moon, and the wide tracks began to grasp the desert-like surface of the moon—the rift valley was not far from the camp, and those white creatures lived about every Coming at a speed of forty kilometers per hour, he was less than [-] meters away from the convoy in just a few seconds.Dozens or hundreds of them move together, approaching the expedition team with a wide front. Although they don't know what the scene in the rift behind them is, this is enough to make Adam feel terrified. Vehicles can easily shake off these monsters, but this is the moon, and the expedition team's vehicles are designed for load, not speed, and this damn terrain...

Suddenly, a new order overridden Adam's order, causing the eight scythe mechas of the entire expedition team to leave the convoy and set up a straight line on the left and right of Ensig.The feet of the mecha are deeply embedded in the soil of the lunar surface to lower the height of the main body. Two gun barrels with a caliber of [-]mm are erected side by side from the rotatable top layer of the dome. A large yellow-orange grenade was released, loaded into the chamber, locked, and the red laser pointer on the axis aimed at the swarming "unknown life forms".

"The speed of the vehicle is not fast enough for you to escape, so I will buy you a little time, the Nibelungen is turning around, but don't expect such a huge ship to complete the orbit in three hours and go to Al Qaeda Good defense, if I'm lucky (referring to Adam), I'll meet you there."

Ensger's voice accompanied the action instructions, causing the carrier vehicle to speed up and move towards the base, while he himself released the defense system of the prosthetic from the back together with these lightly armed mechs—those waving prosthetic tips sprayed With fiery plasma sparks, he was ready to test the biological tolerance of these creatures.

"We need data. This will be the first battle between the Human Federation and extraterrestrial life. The relevant records will be uploaded in real time until the body completely loses its function. It's not just a war. I believe this information is very likely. will be about our prospects for stepping out into the universe, and for that little sacrifice will be insignificant."

---

The live video broadcast is far from over, but the information provided by Ensig and Li De's own information are enough for him to piece together a fuzzy jigsaw puzzle - what Ensig encountered was the one he knew, Even if there are still some things that need to be confirmed, it is almost the same.

BETA——I have long guessed that this universe is not normal, but it has no lower limit!
